Tips and Tricks: Team development synchronization via web farms

Have you ever worked on a project with multiple devs and noticed that you needed to restart your Kentico application to prevent overriding your colleagues work? This can be avoided using web farm synchronization.

It works as follows. Every developer runs a local copy of the files which point to the same shared database. When a developer updates an object the other developers need to be somehow informed. This can be easily accomplished by enabling web farm synchronization to notify all the development machines when a change requires the cache to be flushed.
